Is There Any Home Remedy For The Swollen Eye Which Has Spread To The Cheek Bone?
my husband has had a swollen eye for two days now, not his eye lid and his eye is not blood shot nor is it a sty or pink eye. The swelling has spread a bit to the top of his cheek bone and of course he doesn t think he should go to the hospital anything we can do at home to help?

Hello,
It seems from the history that your husband has got swollen eye. Swollen eye is usually seen because of injury or because of inflammation like hordeolum or pink eye. Since you have told that both are not there, no need to worry.
You can use cold compression by ice packs application to the swelling as home remedy.
If the swelling wont decrease then need to consult your doctor for further evaluation and treatment.
Thank you
